Twitter Fail Whale: Should we Blame Barbara Walters, The Democrats, or Global Warming? (UPDATE – Blame #Skittles!)

UPDATE 03/03/09: Skittles has redirected its domain to Facebook. It is as of yet whether Skittles has left Twitter permanently, or whether it is planning to periodically redirect to its various social networking sites. For more speculation, see Mashable.

UPDATE: Apparently, Skittles broke Twitter…?! The Skittles website now just goes to its Twitter feed, and Tweeters are clearly enthralled.

ORIGINAL POST 03/02/09: Twitter is getting a workout today.

Between the Dow dropping below 7000 after Obama finally revealed last week what he was hoping to change in America, 15 inches of Global Warming shutting down airports in New England, and the hillarity which ensued after Barbara Walters attempted to exlain Twitter on The View – There’s just so much to tweet (and retweet)!

I haven’t been able to get onto Twitter for 20 minutes, now and I’m already having withdrawals.

NoStimulus.com – Sign the Petition! (Update – Nearly 500,000 signatures, but our Government isn’t listening.)

UPDATE 02/10/09: NoStimulus.com Effort Crosses 200,000 Petitions! Taxpayer Outrage Intensifies

“This is an avalanche of public opinion, and members of Congress ignore it at their own peril.” –AFP President Tim Phillips

WASHINGTON─ While the US Senate chose to ignore its constituents and vote in favor of a trillion dollars of debt yesterday, more than 100,000 American taxpayers expected to foot the bill signed Americans for Prosperity’s NoStimulus online petition, doubling the number in one day and bringing the count over 200,000.

“Americans now have an outlet to express their views on the stimulus plan going through Congress and it’s called the NoStimulus.com petition, and boy are they using using. The growing citizen outrage against this spending nightmare has brought out the voices in many Americans and they’re no giving up,” said Stuart Jolly, state director of Americans for Prosperity for Oklahoma. “In fact, we doubled the number of petition signers in one day to over 200,000.”

The amended bill will now go back to the House for a vote, giving taxpayers more time to examine its contents and voice concern to their legislators. If even one member of Congress changes positions, the stimulus ‘compromise’ will quickly be compromised.

“Despite the outcome of this first test vote, this bill is far from a done deal,” said Tim Phillips, president of Americans for Prosperity. “The American people are so angry that they flooded our NoStimulus.com web site off the Internet as we rushed to add more servers all day yesterday. Millions of people tried to reach the site. This is an avalanche of public opinion, and members of Congress ignore it at their own peril.”

AFP launched NoStimulus.com, a website and online petition against the Pelosi/Reid/Obama spending package, with much success three weeks ago, collecting over 200,000 signatures to date and receiving national media coverage.

More than 50,000 of those petitions were delivered to Senate offices last week during debate on the bill and more will be delivered later this week. AFP continues to drive citizens to the NoStimulus petition and urges them to contact their legislators, flooding Capitol Hill with overwhelming constituent opposition.

The complete website and online petition can be viewed at www.nostimulus.com.

UPDATE 02/09/09: Good morning fellow WebWarriors, and welcome to all of you who are visiting Ft. Hard Knox for the first time, looking for the NoStimulus Petition. We are aware that due to the number of people who are wanting to sign the petition, the American’s for Prosperity site is having trouble handling the traffic. We are also having trouble handling the traffic overflow.

While we appreciate your frustration, and share your anger over the so-called “stimulus” legislation, we encourage you to direct that anger toward the Congress Critters who are considering signing the Stimulus Bill into law. Posting ugly comments, and sending angry e-mails to the administrators of the website gathering your signatures, or the adminIstrators of sites linking to the petition is just silly. Don’t be silly.

Thank you.

Jenn

I wanted to give you an opportunity to make a difference…today! Please send a message to our US Senate that you don’t want them spending your inheritance…nor your kid’s inheritance by passing the so-called stimulus plan. We want to send a message that we care. So far over 60,000 people from around the country have logged on to www.NoStimulus.com and cast their vote against this bill. Rush Limbaugh talked about it on air a couple of days ago and the number of people signing the petition crashed our site twice. It’s up now, so please sign the petition. People care and you should too.

Think about this: If you spent 1 million dollars A DAY since Jesus Christ was born, it still would not add up to the amount of this stimulus! And we’re not even sure what it is we’re stimulating since so much of it is pork and going to things that does not help our economy. Much of it is going to bail out bad business practices. It’s a temporary boost of cash if anything and a short term financial bandaid. Where’s the long term view of stimulating growth and prosperity in this bill? Senator Tom Coburn (R-OK) calls it a “skunk!”

This is an issue you need to take action on. Go to www.NoStimulus.com and sign the petition TODAY! The list of nearly 100,000 names will be delivered to the Senate this weekend. Sign it today…it only takes about 10 seconds!

And PLEASE send it to all your friends and get them to sign it. We only have today and tomorrow to take action. We’re hoping the vote gets pushed to Monday but it doesn’t look like it will. Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) wants a vote now, because he knows that if he waits we’ll defeat it.

…Thank you for taking action!!

Pelosi On Stimulus STD Education…What?

Nancy Pelosi makes a fool of herself on the CBS “Early Show,” trying to defend STD education as a stimulus.

 

Highlights of the Porkulus Bill

The stimulus, I mean porkulus, bill is a giant candy store for the Democrats.  They have found the motherload of other people’s money and they can’t wait to spend it on their pet projects and special interest groups.  Consider some of the provisions:

According to the Wall Street Journal:

• Only 12 cents out of every dollar is for growth stimuli (which doesn’t go into effect for years in some cases)
• $600 million is to buy themselves new “green” cars (even though they already spend $3 billion per year)
• $252 billion is for people who do nothing: $81 billion for Medicaid, $36 billion for unemployment benefits, $20 billion for food stamps, and $83 billion for people who don’t pay income tax
• $54 billion will go to “ineffective” government programs (reported by the Office of Management and Budget or the Government Accountability Office)
• $66 billion goes to the Department of Education

It gets worse.  According to CNS News and Fox News:

• $500 per worker and $1,000 per couple including illegal aliens since social security numbers can’t be checked
• $335 million for STDs
• $4.19 billion in “neighborhood stabilization activities” such as ACORN
• $10 million for bike and walking trails
• $200 million for plug-in car stations
• $400 million for climate change research
• $600 million for grants for diesel emission reduction
• $650 million for “alternative energy technologies”
• $1.5 billion for construction of “green schools”
• $2.7 billion would go toward embryonic stem cell experimentation
• $75 million for smoking cessation
• $246 million over 11 years for investors in big budget movie projects
• $50 billion to the National Endowment for the Art
• $150 million for bees called “honey insurance”
• $20 million for “fish barriers”

 

Obama the Great Divider

Barack Obama claimed, “There’s not a liberal America and a conservative America – there’s the United States of America.“  It turns out it is a liberal America after all.  After the Republican’s spanked him on the “porkulus” spending bill, he had to go it alone with the liberal Democrats.  The great uniter couldn’t even muster one Republican vote because he was unwilling to compromise. In his first test of unity, he managed to divide.

Barack Obama once said, “A good compromise, a good piece of legislation, is like a good sentence; or a good piece of music. Everybody can recognize it. They say, ‘Huh. It works. It makes sense.’”  Mr. Obama, your legislation wasn’t music, there was no compromise, and it doesn’t make sense.  It’s a spending bill.  Instead of letting people have their own money to spend, you let government take that money from their pockets and let government decide how it will distribute the wealth under the guise of “stimulus.”  You fell prey to the belief of self importance that the government knows how to spend people’s money better than they do.  Your “sense” is nonsense.

Barack Obama, who claimed “change” as his mantra, has proven he can’t change a thing. He is the archetect of  division–the great divider.

Press Sides With Obama

The Wall Street Journal is reporting some of the comments by the press after Republican’s refused to support the $825 billion pork bill (often calling it a stimulus package).  Consider some of the comments from that story and others:

ABC Anchor Charles Gibson:  The banner announcing the story called it a “Rescue Plan.”  Then he went on to moan that “”not one Republican voted for it… turning a cold shoulder to the President’s appeal for bipartisan support.”

Reporter Jonathan Karl of ABC chided Republicans: “”So much for the President’s charm offensive. Today it was all partisan rancor and name-calling.”

Katie Couric of CBS whined:  “the President went up to the Hill to personally appeal to Republicans already… what more can he do?”

CBS reporter Chip Reid commented: “the White House says this is a victory for the President, but certainly there is also some disappointment that he worked so hard to get bipartisan support and couldn’t get a single Republican vote.”

LA Times reporter Mark Barabak used this headline to dismiss Republican:  “Republicans take a back seat.”

The Seattle-Post Intelligencer labeled their story about Republicans this way: “Loyal opposition: Still out of touch.”

It is interesting these same reporters never used this language when Bush was president.
